    I just got Netflix where they send you DVDs in the mail then you throw them in the post when you are done, etc - Im sure they have something similar in the US

    Anyway, Its been a long time since I went to the movies or rented one so Im looking for suggestions...I want to put at least 30 on the "Wish List"

    So far I got:

    1: Munich
    2: Wal Mart The High Cost Of Low Price
    3: Napoleon Dynamite
    4: Walk The Line
    5: March Of The Penguins
    6: Saw
    7: King Kong 2005

    Don't slam any on the current list cuz I know there are 1 or 2 bad ones

    If you post one, I'll read the reviews

    Cheers

    I'm on a similar deal with EasyCinema - cheaper than FrontRow etc. and really convenient, getting to keep the DVD for as long as you want. I went on a rampage and added 100 titles in one go - that will last me till 2010. Will keep an eye on this thread though.

    Saw is pretty interesting, II is good as well if it's out already. I just watched Supersize Me via this and can recommend it :)

    I'm really crap at remembering movie titles so what am I doing here anyway?!

    I heard Shawn likes Meet The Fokkers ;)

    Seriously though, City Of God, one of the best movies I've ever seen.

    Crash,
    Flight Plan,
    Inside Man
    Saw II
    Papillion (old classic Steve McQueen)
    Shawshank Redemption
    Kung Fu Hustle (totally weird but very funny)
    Hannibal
    Cape Fear
    Delicatessen (again weird but funny)
    Shaft
    Jackie Brown

    I don't suppose you are into animation much but if your sharing your tv screen with anyone who is - Spirit - Stallion of Cimmarron, Shrek (1 and 2), Monsters, Inc. are all good kids movies that throw a bone to adults too.

    Did you think so? I liked it far better than BB Mountain which was like watching paint dry. Slowly. On a humid day.

    A couple I forgot are 11:14. (I think the full name might be 11:14 Final Destination)

    Million Dollar Baby

    I thought NetFlix was a US based company... It's really popular here too. Really pissing BlockBuster off.

    Anything with Will Ferrell in it = a must see.
